Zyga Technology received CE Mark approval of the Glyder Facet Restoration Device.
The device is intended to provide relief from lumbar facet pain, restoring facet joint function while preserving native anatomy. It is a non-fusion and minimally invasive solution.
"The Glyder device fills a gap in the current care continuum between short-term treatments such as injections and irreversible procedures such as lumbar fusion, which requires advanced degeneration and comorbidities such as intervertebral disc disease or radiculopathy," said Jim Bullock, president and CEO of Zyga Technology.
